'He was actually attractive': Hero Ed Miliband saves cyclist

Ed Miliband was branded a hero today after he appeared out of nowhere to help a cyclist who had crashed off her bike.

Ella Phillips, 29, was on her way to her job at Holborn’s October Gallery when she flipped over her handlebars near Kentish Town tube station, but the Labour leader quickly put her on the pavement away from traffic.

"He mysteriously appeared out of nowhere, a bit like an action hero," she told the Camden New Journal.

"There was a bike in front of me which suddenly stopped so I had to make an emergency brake. The back wheel flipped over, and the next thing I knew my face was hurtling towards the ground. There must have been a fault with the brakes or the chain.
